Vice President.In the narrow calculus of Presidential elections, it does make sense. Ohio supposedly "determined" the 2004 election (my take on that), and no Democrat has won without Ohio.
But Gov. Strickland's accession to the Vice Presidency will not benefit Ohio in any way at all. It would be a tragic waste of leadership, both practical and moral, at a time when leadership of either sort is in short supply (example); and would seriously cripple his Turnaround Ohio and energy programs.
Please urge the Governor to stay home and stay the course.

He wouldnt have to neccesairliy resign as Governor if he was the VP nominee. If they lost he could still be governor.
Ben:
Your statement is true; but accepting the VP nomination is a risk (of a Democratic victory), that is not in Ohio's interest for him to take.
